Hi, here on leap 42.1 vlc does not work anymore since the latest update.
Zypper up showed some "additional output" on three of the packages: segmentation fault.
I went to yast, double-checked that all vlc-related comes from packman, and forced to update all of them. It downloaded and the shown install report seems fine. But vlc does not open. Started from command line it gives
VLC media player 2.2.4 Weatherwax (revision 2.2.4) Speicherzugriffsfehler
Can't find anything helpful with googling. Anybody here knows?
Thanks,
Daniel
I'm using the Beta, also from pacman. If I go into Dolphin, find some song or video I can open it with VLC via a right click, and it plays just fine.
But If I launch it from the command line (not specifying a file to play) ... and nothing appears (does not run). ...
Ive found I can get it to launch and wait for graphical input if I do something like:
vlc --ignore-config and having once done that, launching with just vlc works from then on as does the KDE menu. Go Figure.
Thanks for your input, John. I don't have the beta installed, but VLC 2.2.4 Unfortunately "vlc --ignore-config" does not change anything :-( Meanwhile I found a suse forum entry that points to a problem with the nvidia driver that was updated before, but also there nobody found a solution... ( https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/521722-Packman-s-VLC-Player-v2-2-... ) I have an asus laptop with intel graphics chip and a Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 M, using prime-select to switch between intel and nvidia. With nvidia vlc quits with segmentation fault immediately. After switching to intel VLC starts normally. But using intel graphics there are other problems: only a cropped image is visible (in full size, as much as to fill window height) of my large-size mobile phone mp4 videos, and this also happens using dragon player. Anyway, this intel chip on my laptop is too slow and large videos show pixelated parts and make short pauses, so I must use nvidia to watch videos. Dragon player works normally with nvidia. But I prefer VLC. So if anybody knows a solution, I'd love to hear about it :-) -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Barcelona http://www.daniel-bauer.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
